That I would expect

+++ b/src/config/general.h
@@ -154,6 +154,7 @@ FILE_LICENCE ( GPL2_OR_LATER_OR_UBDL );

Yes, I should have raised clearly the question:

  Should the efimap command be default enabled?

I'm trying to care about the cool iPXE project.
It does happen that submitted patches are unanswered for weeks.
Patch submitters will think:  "Why should I bother again?"  Or "Does
really no-one care?"
